Write user stories to capture the ever changing requirements

In modern software development, requirements capturing is not something you can finish at the outset of a project. Instead, new requirements constantly emerge while previously suggested requirements can change throughout the project. To meet the ever changing expectations, we need a way that can facilitate the continuous capturing and management of users' requirements. User stories is one of the approaches that has been widely adopted by many agile projects.
Written by users (or customer team), user stories describe functionality that are needed by and valuable to users. As an integral part of many agile development processes, user stories offers a quick way in recording users’ requirements without the need to write any detailed requirement documents, or to have any prior consideration of system behaviors.
In Visual Paradigm 11.2, we have introduced a set of features that aids agile development teams to use user stories for requirements capturing and project management. One of them is a user stories editor that allows you to represent user stories as cards as well as to detail the conversation and confirmation items – The Three C.

Write "general" user stories

Write down each of the user-valued functionality as a story card. Keep the card(s) as a reminder of conversation and as part of the project plan. Visual Paradigm 11.2 features a handy user stories editor which allows you to write user stories effectively.

Use case - the "wallet" of user stories

Get a full picture of a system by organizing user goals with use cases. Organizing user stories within use case ensures that the stories are goal-driven and are within the system scope. You can also track the progress of supporting a use case by reviewing the status of containing user stories.

Manage user stories in sprint basis

Discuss user stories with customer team and then plan out the next sprint(s). Customer team and development team work collaboratively to select the user stories to be included in the sprint with a reasonable sprint duration. You can also assign team members to design, implement and test the user stories.

Prioritize user stories

Prioritize user stories to maximize the value delivered to other users. Stories can be prioritized based on their costs and business values. In Visual Paradigm, you can easily prioritize story cards with drag-and-drop features.

Identify use cases from use case statements

Use case statements is a technique that helps identifying actors and use cases. The user voice form of use case expression begins with , which provides a user-oriented approach to identifying the business objective (i.e. use case) and business value.

Align shapes perfectly with the new alignment guide

When dragging shapes, alignment guide lines appear so you can position shapes in alignment with others.

Duplicate tasks in Tasifier

You can now use the duplicate feature to quickly create new task(s) from an existing one to save time in creating similar tasks again and again.

Specify working days and holidays in Tasifier

Tasifier now takes working days and holidays into account. The date picker is re-developed to indicate those working days and holidays. We also skipped those working days and holidays in the calculation of task duration. All these ensure tasks to be planned and carried out on schedule.

Report team members’ workload

Measure the workload and capability of your team by producing a report that lists out the not-yet-performed, executing and completed task(s) of each team member. With this report, you can distribute new task(s) or re-assign task(s) to them based on their individual workload and capability, making the team more efficient and productive.

Filtering in decision table

You can now set filters down the conditions and actions columns to help you to find the rule(s) that match(es) with certain condition(s) and/or action(s).
